Crabbing at Rocky Neck State Park
Erek Blaschke, of Southington, wipes sweat from his eyes while crabbing with his children, from left, Matthias, 3, Misha, 7, and Myla, 5, at Rocky Neck State Park in East Lyme on Thursday, July 1, 2021. The family came to the park for the day and were mainly catching blue crabs. Most had to be thrown back due to size but Erek said in the first hour they had about four. “We were planning on having chicken for dinner tonight but I think we might get to grill some crabs instead,' he said.
